Saattveek

What a lovely atmosphere. This is like eating at home, but out at the same time. This place is newish. It serves good home style cooking from Southern India for very reasonable prices. Ordering confidently can take some open mindedness or help from the owner because the dishes explanation doesn’t always create a picture in your head of what to expect. We took the owners advice and had four superb dishes. It was supposed to be a taste test but turned into a full meal! They are very very friendly. The freshness, and the fact that the dishes can be labour intensive to try making yourself, so why try — enjoy a pleasant afternoon eating here instead. Décor is relaxed, clean and bright blue. This is Mumbai cuisine I believe.

OMG this cute little vegetarian restaurant where Jai Jalaram Khaman used to be is amazing with fresh food from the Bombay region of India, a little different from the regular offerings, but easy to manage with the helpful suggestions from the staff.
We were a hungry group of four girls and at 17ish dollars a head we were well catered for.
Starters
we went with the lovely owners suggestions and tried three starter between us, one potatoes dish one fried coriander (trust me you just have to try) and one fried sago dish all came with lovely dips and sauces and at $ 4 or $ 5 each an impressive serving.
Main
We shared 2 Thali’s which is a kinda set plate with pickles, salad, spiced rice, dal and breads. every was very tasty
Desert
Even thou we where heading into the too full stage by now the deserts were interesting enough to tempt us, I had the Shrikhand which was sweet and full of flavour and interesting blend of cardamon and sweet sugar. a little defiantly goes a long way…
All washed down with Mango Lassi which looked a vibrant colour.
I will be back no doubt with more friends to tow to show off this little gem in Sandringham.
